Revision as of 05:24, 13 May 2013

This is a personal project and I'm merely using this as a template.

This is a comprehensive list of story missions in the game Tool. There are 500 missions in total. Not all are required to complete the storyline of the game.

This is not a GTA fanfiction, it's simply a reference for an idea for a game with a GTA state of mind, like Red Dead Redemption.

South Yankton

Tool takes place in the year 2091, around 50 years after a world-wide war renders the world in an anarchistic state. The state of South Yankton is based mostly on western South Dakota, with a bit of north Nebraska and east Wyoming making up the southern and western borderlands, respectively.

Gavin Wright is a young man from the East coast of the USA. Born years after the fall of civilized life, Gavin grew up in a small New England community, where he quickly obtained a fascination and a hobby of fixing vehicles, starting with bicycles and moving up to gas-powered automobiles. Gavin competed in small local and long-distance races, living a content life, however the enticing lifestyle of the races held in South Yankton, the racing capital of North America, sent Gavin on a trek to the state in hopes of making a living out of his passion for racing.

Gavin, never a man of violence, enters the wasteland with a naive heart, however in time he gradually becomes desensitized after having no choice but to partake in the harsh realities of life in a lawless world.

The game is an homage to the biker culture, which grew in popularity in America in the 1960s and continued to the present. The setting is inspired by western South Dakota, a popular location for bike riders, largely due to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in the Black Hills.

Kubrick County missions

Kubrick County is the eastern-most territory of the explorable game, and makes up the eastern portion of the great plains. It is a region with yellow wheat fields and numerous hills and cliffs.

Protagonist Gavin Wright arrives in the midwestern state of South Yankton, and tries to gain access to the city of New Gaspard to compete in professional races. Missions in this county involve Gavin's attempt to assimilate in this foreign region and gain allies that can help him become better and more knowledgeable in vehicle racing and maintenance, along with several obstacles that threaten him and his chances of competing. Many of these missions have Gavin as the driver with additional help as required.

Kubrick County is the eastern section of the great plains. There are 32 missions in the main thread in Kubrick County.

No Fancy Stage Aesthetics

Steal flamethrowers from the arsenal. Steal searchlights from the military base. Steal dry ice barrels from the underground lab.

These materials are going to be used for stage purposes. The flamethrowers are for pyrotechnics, the searchlights are for spotlights, and the dry ice barrels are makeshift fog machines.
